Abstract:
A method and a tool for repairing a composite-material panel of an aircraft with at least one repair part made of composite material without using an autoclave. The repair method includes the steps of preparing the panel, placing at least one repair part made of composite material on the second face to cover a damaged zone, positioning a vacuum bag configured to sealingly cover the repair part, polymerizing or consolidating the repair part, compressing the vacuum bag against the repair part using a compression plate concomitantly with the step in which the repair part is polymerized or consolidated.
